Pre Event Info

Callum takes us into the contours again - this is a small but beautifully formed area. NB Please check here nearer the time, as detail might change.

Location Info

Directions / Parking

About 1.25 miles north of Aviemore there's a bend in the road and a "crossroads" where 2 farm tracks meet the main road. Turn EAST onto the track that heads for the railway. Continue past a few houses, round the side of the loch and park carefully near the bird hide. Parking is a bit limited so please share cars and if necessary park near the main road and jog down.

Dog restrictions

Dogs MUST be on leads (or left in the car) - this is working farmland.

focus. Call it training or just playing, it’s as hard as you want it to
